"Steven, Matisse, come and take a look. This wooden crate is in some special condition. It may be a new discovery!"
Raymond's voice came from the headphones, full of excitement.
Hearing these words, Ye Tian and Matisse immediately turned their heads to look in his direction, and then swam towards Raymond's location.
At this time, they were in front of the fourth pile of wooden crates covered by rope nets. They were checking these wooden crates, and they had already gained something. They found three boxes of gold.
Including the Nacui gold discovered before, they have found thirty boxes of dazzling Nacui gold in this cargo hold alone.
Based on ten trapezoidal gold ingots per box and each gold ingot weighing 15 kilograms, the weight of the gold contained in the gold they found was as high as four and a half tons, which is astonishing!
If this gold is converted into U.S. dollars based on the current market conditions, the value of this gold will be as high as 210 million U.S. dollars, which is an astronomical figure!
What's more important is that this is just a cargo hold that has not yet been inspected. There are several cargo holds behind it. Ye Tian and the others have not stopped discovering treasures, and surprises are still appearing!
With the appearance of boxes of gold, the impact of this treasure hunt is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more eyes are gathering on this sea area, and every one of them is extremely hot!
Driven by greed, some guys, organizations, and even countries with ulterior motives have already launched actions to try to get a piece of the pie. It would be great to be able to monopolize this sunken treasure!
At the same time, Ye Tian's counter-self-defense actions have also been launched, with careful planning and impeccable plans!
Beyond the live broadcast screen, there are already turbulent undercurrents. Just like the hydrological conditions of this sea area, there are countless violent undercurrents hidden under the calm sea surface!
Ye Tian, who was deep under the sea and exploring the cabin of the freighter, was not worried about anyone trying to find the sunken treasure.
Has he encountered this kind of thing rarely? It’s become commonplace!
No matter who the other party is, judging from the current situation, it is basically impossible to rush to this sea area immediately.
Even if they arrived in time, they would not dare to send people to dive deep to rob this sunken treasure without being familiar with the hydrological conditions. The idiots who died on the seabed before were a **** lesson!
When Ye Tian and his team's exploration operation is over, the operation to salvage the sunken treasures will begin overnight, striving to salvage this amount of gold, jewelry and diamonds as quickly as possible, without giving others the opportunity to take advantage of it!
As long as these gold, jewels and diamonds are salvaged from the water and loaded into the Brave and Dauntless, even if the King of Heaven comes, he will not be able to get his hands on this huge wealth!
This is the high seas. The exploration fleet itself is not weak in force, and there is also the National Geographic Channel's live broadcast team here. Countless eyes from around the world are focused here.
Faced with this situation, I believe that not many people or countries would dare to openly loot the exploration fleet and loot Ye Tian. This is one of the reasons why Ye Tian launched this live broadcast of the treasure hunt!
In addition, there are two American warships nearby that are eyeing them. Those American soldiers are not just decorations. Since they are paid, they have to do something!
With a Burke-class destroyer and a supply-class fast combat support ship standing to cheer, who would dare to take the initiative to attack the Brave and Dauntless? Unless you get tired of living!
After the gold, jewelry and diamonds are salvaged from the water and the inventory is completed, Ye Tian will immediately transport them away by helicopter.
Next, he plans to use US military air bases in Europe and US military transport planes to transport this batch of Nacui gold, jewelry and diamonds directly back to New York, so that no one else can even touch them!
He had done the same thing in the Caribbean, and he was very familiar with it. The price he paid was just a sum of money, which was not worth mentioning at all!
When this batch of Nacui gold, jewelry and diamonds arrives in New York smoothly, everything will be fine and no one will have to worry about it!
Because they are shipwreck treasures from the high seas, even if someone sues in New York, the U.S. courts have no jurisdiction and can only allow Ye Tian to absorb this huge wealth!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and Matisse swam to Raymond's side. After using the rope net to stabilize their bodies, they immediately looked at the wooden crate that Raymond pointed to.
From the outside, the wooden box looked no different from other boxes. There were several knock marks on it, and the remaining text information showed that it once contained gum arabic!
"Tell me, Raymond, what's so special about this wooden crate!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.
He knows better than anyone what is in this wooden box. Now it is just a show!
Raymond turned to look at Ye Tian and Matisse, then gently patted the wooden crate under his hand, and said excitedly:
“Compared to those wooden crates containing only sea water and debris, this box is obviously heavier, but compared to those wooden crates containing Nacui gold, this box is much lighter.
Because of this, I said that the situation of this box is quite special. According to my estimation, the weight of this wooden box is about eighty or ninety kilograms. I don’t know what is inside! "
"So, the situation of this wooden crate is indeed special. Let me feel its weight!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian gently swung his legs, swam a little closer, then reached out and gently pushed the wooden box.
As Raymond said, this box weighs only eighty or ninety kilograms, and its feel is obviously different from other boxes that have been inspected before.
While retracting his right hand, Ye Tian pretended to be excited and said:
"The situation of this box is indeed unique. It may contain other things, maybe jewelry and diamonds of higher value. Let's open it and take a look!"
"Okay, Steven, let's open the box now. I hope the contents of this box can bring you a surprise!"
Raymond responded, and then he and Matisse cooperated with each other and began to dismantle the wooden box.
At the same time, everyone’s eyes lit up in front of the live broadcast. Everyone was staring closely at the live broadcast screen and the slightly damaged wooden box, not wanting to blink!
Without any effort at all, Matisse and Raymond easily pried open a board on the wooden box, and the situation inside the box was immediately revealed to everyone.
There is no dazzling gold, nor dazzling jewelry and diamonds.
Putted inside the box, what appears in front of everyone's eyes are square, cubic metal boxes, stacked in a staggered manner, with a small lock hanging on each metal box!
Under the dual effects of time and sea water, those metal boxes have become rusty, as have the locks that lock the metal boxes. They are covered with rust and have long since been scrapped!
Looking through the gap between the pried wooden boards, you can see that the metal boxes are not large in size. The length, width and height are only about 30 centimeters. However, they are made of enough materials and look quite strong!
Rather than saying these are metal boxes, it is better to call them simple safes, which seems more appropriate. I just don’t know what is in these safes!
After looking at the situation in the box, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"Pry open two more boards, and then take out the top metal box. Let's see what's in that metal box? It might be a huge surprise!"
"Got it, Steven, it's up to us"
Matisse responded, and then started to pry the wooden boards on the box again.
After a while, they finished their work. Matisse took out a metal box from the box and handed it to Ye Tian.
Taking the metal box, Ye Tian was not in a hurry to open it to see what was inside.
He first weighed the metal box, then turned it over and over carefully, and then said with a smile:
"You can feel that this metal box is not too heavy. The thing inside is obviously not gold ingots, it must be something else, which is unknown for the time being!
But I believe that the things inside must be valuable, otherwise Rommel and his men would not be so cautious and actually put a second layer of insurance on it.
What treasure is contained in this metal box? I am very curious, and I believe everyone is too. Matisse, please cut off this lock and let everyone take a look! "
As he spoke, he turned the locked side of the metal box to Matisse.
"Okay, Steven"
Mattis nodded and took action immediately.
In the blink of an eye, the rusty lock head was cut into two pieces. The lower lock head fell to the bulkhead, and the upper half of the lock post was still hanging on the metal box.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian pinched the half of the lock column and twisted it back and forth a few times. After twisting it alive, he took it off from the metal box!
